More Food & Fun At The Orange County Fair.
Today we tried the “Cheesey Potato Melt” from Original Bratwurst. It’s Mashed Potatoes with Cheese with optional Bratwurst on top. It sounded interesting, but only tasted okay — More flavor/spice is needed. The Orange County Fair’s Daily Events Calendar has a coupon for a FREE one with the purchase of any Sandwich.
And it was fun to see Pinks at the Fair — I’d been to the Pinks in Hollywood, but it’s more convenient to have their Chili Cheese Dog in Orange County.
We found the Chocolate Dipped Bacon and will be trying it this Saturday. This visit we opted to simply enjoy its producer in the All Alaskan Pig Races. They’re so cute — The Races run at 3, 5, 7 and 9PM every OC Fair day, and at 1PM on weekends.
And it was Beef Ribs for the road — YUM. It’s just another day of food and fun things to see and do at the Orange County Fair.

I’m really not sure if the Fair version of Pink’s Chili Dog is exactly the same as the original — I would hope so. I really liked the Chili, but the Hot Dog (to me) has too thick of a casing. I don’t want a Hot Dog to pop each time I bite into it.
I had a Pink’s chili cheese dog a couple years back at the LA County Fair and I just wasn’t impressed. I’d much rather have PCH then the thing I had at the fair.
Is the fair version an honest copy of the original?
Bummer on the Cheesy Potato Melt. That had so much potiental!
